Life is so precious - Live it

I have been fighting the gloom that seems to settle down on me every now and again.. I know that sadness is a part of life and we need to accept it. It has come as a shock to me that one of my classmates from high school passed on this last Thursday. This is the the third death among my classmates and it kind of leaves the rest of us feeling gloomy. The girl has been fit and fine she just reached fifty last year and had a fantastic celebration with family and friends. We were still commenting on how fit and young she looks and all of a sudden her daughter updated her profile saying her mother has passed on. She complained of a head ache and as it got worse she was rushed to the ER and before they knew it she had passed on. A couple of months ago another one of my classmates passed on due to cancer. Last year one of them died in an accident. Most of my friends used to say they are still feeling young but with these deaths most of them have gone into depression. One of my close friends seems to think she would be next .. I have such a tough time trying to get her off these gloomy thoughts. This morning I saw a post on another one of my friends fb page and its says that she is getting ready for death. I do feel sad, I feel the gloom settle on me..once in a while However it seems that the others around me seem to be filled with gloom and doom. . I know life has to continue for those of us here and I won't let this get me down.. This makes me wonder if the death of your friends makes you feel this way
